The current research was aimed to investigate the performance of combined persulfate oxidation process and tannin via coagulation-flocculation processes as a post treatment of anaerobically treated palm oil mill effluent (AnT-POME). Different dosages of sodium persulfate (Na2S2O8, 238 g/mol) 0.1 (w...

Catechol is used as an antioxidant, fungicide, and polymerization inhibitors in a variety of industries such as petrochemical. Catechol must be removed from effluents before it enters to environment. This study aimed to investigate combined UV radiation and persulfate process in removal of catechol...

Municipal landfill leachate generated from aged sites requires an efficient treatment to minimize the high level of refractory organic matters prior to final discharge. In the current study, the performance of combined ozonation and Zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) for anaerobic stabilized leachate treatment...

Being used in large quantities for some decades, antibiotics have been of little notice since their existence in the environment. Present study aims at investigating the optimization of Ciprofloxacin removal (CIP) in Thermally Activated Persulfate (TAP)/Aeration systems by Central Composite Design...

The decomposition of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS), which is a dangerous and anionic surfactant, was investigated by the electro/Fe 2+/persulfate process from aqueous solutions. The activation of persulfate anion and production of active radicals were performed by means of heat, UV and iron...

The current study aimed to evaluate the performance of sodium persulfate to treat stabilized landfill leachate. Factorial design with response surface methodology (RSM) was used to evaluate the interaction between operational conditions, such as persulfate dosage, pH, and reaction time, to obtain...

Recently, considerable efforts have been devoted to overcome a major limitation in semiconductor photocatalysis, the recombination of photogenerated e --h + pairs which leads to reduced quantum yields. Considering the impacts of various parameters on the photocatalytic degradation efficiency, our...

This review provides a general overview of the application of chemical oxidation to hydrophobic contaminants in the form of non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs). Three types of chemical oxidation processes, conventional activated persulfate, permanganate, and ozonation, along with three advanced...
